We understand there are Bombay Papers and .E.rtra ordinary Gazettes in town to the 20th February, giving the particulars of several actions fought near Malloon, in one of which the King of Ava's brother was killed. The British forces were every where successful, and on the 24th January the English army was in full march upon the Burmese eapital. The most extraordinary thing in those Papers is, that the treaty with 'the Burmese had never been transmitted to Unimempoora for s i g n a t ure; i t was found i n t h e B urmese camp.

Captain PARRY has been selected for this interesting Survey, and the Heck is to be pre pared for the performance of this service; during the next year. An ultimate and still Mei& Interesting object is subsequently to be attempted, which will re vire all the energy and enterprise of the distinguished Officer, to whom this service is to he entrusted. W understand the Heck will take out with her, boats or small vessels of peculiar construction, in which Captain PARRY and a party of the Heck's officers and men are to attempt actually to reach the North Pole, leav ing the Heck in the neighbourhood of Spitzbergen. This attempt is to' be made on the suggestion of the Royal Society ; and from the known zeal and skill of the officers to be engaged in the enterprise, the most sanguine expectations are entertained of its success, and the advancement of many interesting objects of scientific research. We publish in another column' such Of the coUrents Of the Supplement to the London Gazette, alluded to in our Paper otyesterday, as had not previously appeared in our columns. IYC extract the following ,paragraph from the Ch?cutta Government Gazette of the 6th Feb. : " Lieutenant Flood, of his Majesty's 12th, had been released by the Burmese. The Commissioners, after the action, sent the original Treaty, found in the house of Prince Memia 80, at rsralloon, to the Kee Wothigee and Hokin Mengee, with a short note, intimating that they had the pleastire to forward a docu ment which, in the' hurry ,of their ret re at, t h ey appeared to have dropped, and might eventually wish to recover. There is every reason to believe that the King's brother, Memia 80, was killed on thel9th ultimo. His horses and trappings were taken, and an European soldier saw the rider to whom these belonged fall wounded from his horse, and carried oft by his followers. " "CALCUTTA, F. 23.

His LORDSHIP said, if the attornies would attend him on Saturday morning, they should be allowed to ride off on the Elephant, and, he hoped, for ever, as he would then take his leave of them in this matter. YOUNG V. GOODSON. This was the name of the commitment case we report ed yesterday, and which Mr. Ching mentioned again, to day, not having been aware, as he afterwards said, that. the Court had mentioned it yesterday. His LORDSHIP said he had refused to sign the commit ment, on the - ground of irregularity. The parties would, therefore, have to begin de novo ; they would have to serve both the Attornies in this partnership w ith t h e original order o f the Court, direeting them 'to deliver in their bills of costs; next .they would have to make an affidavit of such service; then obtain the four day order; subsequently serve that regularly ; and, to wind up, apply for the signing of the commitment. The. Court sat on Appeals: VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT—(Tau act.) DELAY. His Hos:putt continued his seal. Mr. WAKEFIELD moved, That a cause might be ..put back, on the ground that his client- would pared, when the cause would come regularly 'on for hearing. • . His lioNtoun desired to know whether the other side Consented. Mi. WAKEFIELD appeared for the plaintiff, and he did not conceive that the defendant's consent was necessary. His HONOUR said, the plaintiff's not being prepared at the proper time would not prevent the Court's hearing the defendant. Mr. WAKEFIELD said his application was for exactly such an order as had been. made in many cases before. His HONOUR said be, should not add to the number of errors. The old practice was, that a plaintiff was at liberty to act in his own delay, but that had entirely gone past ; the principle 'now was that a plaintiff should not be permitted to delay the hearing of his own case, and there fore the Court refused the motion. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Guii.m4ALL.—(Tnis DAY.) FRY AND OTHERS V. TERRY. This was an action to recover from the defendant the sum of 4971. 155., being the amount of four bills of ex change, :drawn by Mr. Summerfield, and paid by the plaintiffs at the request of the defendant. The plaintiffs were hankers, and kept an account with Mr. Summerfield, a coal-merchant, who was brother-in law to the defendant, proprietorof St. John's Coffee-house. The bills in question were made payable at the house of the plaintiffs, and, became due on the 22d June, 1825. At this time Summerfield had overdrawn his account, and when the bills were presented, the plaintiffs hesitated to pay the amount until they received a note from the de fendant requesting of them to pay, and that he would be answerable. These facts having been proved . by wit nesses, Mr. Scarlett addressed the Jury for the defend ant; he said that his client had been induced, by the false misrepresentations of the plaintiff, to write the d ocument in question.. Th e plaintiff's clerk called on the defendant on the day that the bills had been presented for payment, and informed him that his brother-in-law's credit would be ruined'uniess he should become security 'to the firm for these bills. • Terry, anxious to support the credit of his son-in-law, wrote the above document, not knowing at the same time that Summerfield had fled the country, and committed an act of bankruptcy; of which the plaintiffs were previously aware by a letter to that effect from Sum merlield.. The Learned Comae] contended, that the sup'. suppression of these facts argued deceit on the part of Meths. Fry and Chaptrian. If the plaintiff had been aware that Summerfield had committed an act of bank ruptey, he of course cou ld n ot go secur i ty for the pay tt7tatetdotfhatt the plaintiffs were not entitled t o recover. the bills. Under all circumst ances , h e su b - Several witnesses were examined to establish these facts; hut it appeared that Air,PrY had informed Terry that Summerfield had left the country before the docu ment had been written, and that Terry said he did not he , lieve it. The ATTORNEY..GENERAL replied. The CIIIF.F JUSTICE briefly summed up, an d : i n f ormed the Jury t h at there vas'no e videnee of any misrepresents tions having been made by the plaintiffs to the defendant; but it was . for ~them to say ,if:there suppreraion of any material fact.

The infortnation was filed by the Attorney-General, at the relation Of the grandson bf the founder of the charity, alleging ebriain aises, and praying for an account, as against the Mayor and Corporation of the city of Exeter, to whom the charitable estates, by devolution, had de scended. When the matter was heard before the •Vice- Chancellor his Honour directed the accounts to betaken for nearly 200 years back, , indeed, since the founding of the charity. It went accordingly to the Ma.ster, who made his report. The Defendants appealed against the order of the Court below, and also took exceptio ns t o t h e Master's rep ort . The appeal came on yesterday after noon ; Defendants complaining of his Honour's order, on the ground that they ought not to be called on to account either for what had gone into the hands of the predeces sors, or for What they had done, over whom they could have had no controul; but stating they were ready to ac count for wh at h a d come into their hands, since they had become trustees. After having read the appeal, the answer, and the other papers, his Lordship was of opinion that he could not relieve the defendants from accounting, as or dered. He felt it extremely hard to call upon the parties to account during such a distance of time past, but he could not help it from the nature of the account. The Court pitied them, because they had been so very hOnest, and whether . the Attorney-Gener a l wou ld d o any th i ng for them o r not on that ground, it did not know, but it could do nothing. Mr. HART considered it a very equivocal sort of ho nest), for the parties to confess the debt, and yet do every thing in their power to keep the money in their pockets. The Court dismissed the appeal, and ordered the ex ceptions, which his Lordship had read, to come on to. Morrow. FASHIONABLE iNftLLIGENC.E.

ANECDOTE OF BURNS.—We are not aware that the following anecdote of our Scottish Theoeritus has ever appeared in print :---He was standing one day upon the quay at Greenock, when a wealthy merchant, belonging to the town, had the misfortune to fall into the harbour. He was no swimmer; and his death would have been inevitable, bad ndt a sailor, who happened to be passing at the time, immediately plunged in, and, at the risk of his own life, rescued him from his dangerous situation. The Greenock merchant, upon recovering a little from his fright, put his hand into his pocket, and generously presented the sailor with a shilling. The crowd who were by this time collected loudly protested against the contempti ble insignificance oldie sum ; and Burns, with a smile of ineffable scorn, entreated them to restrain their clamour, for," said he, " the gentleman is of course the best judge of the va l ue o f hi s own life."--Edin burgh Observer.

Extraordinary preparations are making at Vauxhall, for that most interesting spectacle, the Juvenile Fete, which will take place on Saturday next, under the patronage of several members of the Royal Family.

Three men in state liveries, with curiously .wrought-iron cones. A re volving wheel, drawn a-la-tandem, the palfry rode by an interesting boy. A file of cuirassiers, blue and gold. Several flags, with devices. A large square ornamented machine, drawn by two caparisoned horses, with an imperial crown on the summit, fol lowed by a select corps of Polanders.

" What grounds are those ?" in quired the worthy Mayor ; " I am secure, for sarlin." " I don't know where they are," answered a worthy Alderman. Inquiries were then made throughout the Court as to the locality of these grounds. Some said they thought they must be in Yorkshire, as they had never heard say of su c h l an d s i n Li nco l nshire.

During the.whole of Monday and yesterday, the neigh. bourhOod of tlerkenwell and St. John-street MO kept in a state of painful excitement (particularly those families in which deaths had recently taken place), in consequenee of the body of •ri, female having been detected in teatuitU, at the top of St. John's -street, no doubt intended for the anatomical knife. The watchman at the corner of Mid dleton-street perceived a single-horse cart driving rapidly along, in which was a sack tied closely up at the month, and the driver having refused to stop, he was interrupted by another watchman, when the package was taken out, and on examination it was found to contain the body of a female, which appeared to have been some time entomb ed, as it was approaching to a state of decomposition..._ The whole was then taken to St. John's watch-house, and inquiries were made at the different burial-grounds in the neighbourhood, but without discovering from whence the body had been stolen. At eleven o'clock the prisoner was brought before Allan S. Laing; Esq. the sitting Magistrate at Hatton-garden Police Office, before whom the deposi 7 tion of the watchmen were taken doWn; and the prisoner, in defence, said that his name was Jiihn Marshall, that he was a costermonger by trade, and had been out with his cart at a very early hour on Monday morning, intending to go to a distant market; and that when passing through St. John's-street Road, near Islington, he was stopped by two men, carrying a bundle, which they asked him to take in the cart as far as Smithfield, promising to overtake him there, and reward him for his trouble. He protested he was wholly ignorant of the contents of the sack; audit he had formed any supposition on the subject, be should have supposed that the men who employed him were country butchers, who were bringing fat to town for sale. Mr. Laing, however, expressed some doubts as to the truth of this, and committed Marshall to the New Prison under 48 hours' notice,of hail. • , In the course of the day several persons made applica tion to the sextons of different parishes in the neighbour hood; amongst the number was Mr. Ward, of Warner street, Coldba&square, whose wife was interred in the Middle burial -ground of St. James's parish, Clerkenwell, ou Thursday evening. The nurse who attended Mrs. Ward during her illness, went to see the body which was found in the cart, and conceiving it to be that of Mrs. Ward, the hushand was induced to examine the remains, which' were then left to he owned at. the watch house in Roseman street. Mr. Ward was so much affected, on the face be -ing disclosed, that he swooned away ; but from the livid hue it had assumed, he could not speak to it with any certainty, and resolved to have the grave opened to satisfy his doubts respecting the dimihterment; the earth ws 4 taken off the same evening, and at the depth of IlittB:44 the coffin of Mrs. Ward found undisturbed owner appearing during the day who could .ideatiq er ffir , body, it w as re-interred on Monday evening, b): .3 771,erk.. 1 ` the parish o ffi cers; i n . t h e p oor ' s burialgrenna. enwell.
